I know I sound like a broken record, but seriously, how is it Wednesday again already? I guess it has been a bit of a busy week, both sewing-wise and real-life wise, with a sick kiddo, a trip to the circus, and lots of planning for the new year. I'm still fouling up the year on everything I write the date on, but I'm excited to see what this new year will bring. Let's see how my projects are coming along, shall we?

Finished this week:Photo Corners pattern - Thanks for ll the fabulous support and enthusiasm about my newest pattern! You guys are the best :)

Still working on:String Me Along block - Bree asked for a Polaroid-inspired block, using her tutorial, and so far, these little Polaroids are a lot of fun!!

New this week:Mod Stitches block for Jeni - I just got Jeni's fabric in the mail and am looking forward to stitching up a little block for her!

Birthday pouch for Mom - My mother's birthday is coming up next month, and I'd really like to make a zippy pouch for her. She has always had a bottomless purse, so I figure a pouch might really come in handy...plus they're so fun to stitch up! I definitely want to do some kind of patchwork, but I'm awfully undecided at the moment, so I thought I'd pull a few fabrics that I think she'd like. She's a bit more traditional than I am, so I pulled these there beauties, which I think will be a fun combination for her (L-R: fabrics from Terrain, DS Quilts Picnic & Fairgrounds, and The Woodlands).

Your projects are all so beautiful! It must be more fun to use a camera with a beautiful strap. I am loving those polaroid blocks - I can see many uses for those - I spy quilt, fussy cutting HR fabrics, etc!

You have so many great blocks, Elizabeth. I am really fond of the Stash Trad. The dark charcoal really makes the colors pop. Your's is the second Carpenter's Star I've seen this week. I may have to make one for myself.
